August 6th – Frank Sinatra – “Come fly with me”

Why not chill to #FrankSinatra singing “Come fly with me”? #singing;#feelgood

6-8 Old holiday jet

Come fly with me

Come fly with me, let’s fly, let’s fly away
If you can use some exotic booze
There’s a bar in far Bombay
Come fly with me, let’s fly, let’s fly awayCome fly with me, let’s float down to Peru
In llama land there’s a one-man band
And he’ll toot his flute for you
Come fly with me, let’s take off in the blueOnce I get you up there where the air is rarified
We’ll just glide, starry-eyed
Once I get you up there I’ll be holding you so near
You may hear angels cheer ’cause we’re together

Weather-wise it’s such a lovely day
You just say the words and we’ll beat the birds
Down to Acapulco Bay
It’s perfect for a flying honeymoon, they say
Come fly with me, let’s fly, let’s fly away

[instrumental]

Once I get you up there where the air is rarified
We’ll just glide, starry-eyed
Once I get you up there I’ll be holding you so near
You may hear angels cheer ’cause we’re together

Weather-wise it’s such a lovely day
You just say the words and we’ll beat the birds
Down to Ac apulco Bay
It’s perfect for a flying honeymoon, they say
Come fly with me, let’s fly, let’s fly
Pack up, let’s fly away!!

August 4th – Ella Fitzgerald – “Blue Skies”

Here’s hoping that this exactly what you are looking out on to. #singing;#feelgood

Blue Skies

4-8 Blue Sky view

I was blue, just as blue as I could be
Ev’ry day was a cloudy day for me
Then good luck came a-knocking at my door
Skies were gray but they’re not gray anymoreBlue skies
Smiling at me
Nothing but blue skies
Do I see

Bluebirds
Singing a song
Nothing but bluebirds
All day long

Never saw the sun shining so bright
Never saw things going so right
Noticing the days hurrying by
When you’re in love, my how they fly

Blue days
All of them gone
Nothing but blue skies
From now on

I should care if the wind blows east or west
I should fret if the worst looks like the best
I should mind if they say it can’t be true
I should smile, that’s exactly what I do

4-8 Ella Fitzgerald Blue Skies

August 3rd – Sylvia – “Hey Viva Espana”

You can’t have a list of summer songs without the #cheesy ones.  Here is “Hey viva Espana” #singing;#feelgood

3-8 Viva espagna

Hey viva Espana

All the ladies fell for Rudolph Valentino
He had a beano back in those barmy days
He knew everytime you need to ice a creature
You’ve gotta teach her hot blooded Latin ways
But even though they would have felt the strain
Of making smooth advances in the rain

Oh this year I‘m off to sunny Spain
Y Viva Espana
I’m taking the Costa Brava plane
Y Viva Espana
If you’d like to check a matador
In sun cool Cabana
And lead senoritas by the score
Espana por favor

Quite by chance to hot romance I’ve found the answer
Flamenco dances are far the finest bet
There was one who whispered “Ooh Asta La Vista”
Each time I kissed him behind the castanet
He rattled his maracas close to me
In no time I was trembling at the knees

Oh this year I‘m off to sunny Spain
Y Viva Espana
I’m taking the Costa Brava plane
Y Viva Espana
If you’d like to check a matador
In sun cool Cabana
And lead senoritas by the score
Espana por favor

When they first arrive the girls are pink and pasty
But oh so tasty as soon as they go brown
I guess they know every fellow will be queuing
To do the wooing his girlfriend won’t allow
But still I think today’s a lucky day
Thats why I learnt the way to shout “Olay!”

Oh this year I‘m off to sunny Spain
Y Viva Espana
I’m taking the Costa Brava plane
Y Viva Espana
If you’d like to check a matador
In sun cool Cabana
And lead senoritas by the score
Espana por favor

La la la lalalala la
Y Viva Espana
La la la lalalala la
Y Viva Espana

If you’d like to check a matador
In sun cool Cabana
And lead senoritas by the score
Espana por favor
Espana por favor

3-8  Sylvia Y viva Espana

August 2nd – The Tams – “Be young, be foolish, be happy”

Here are #TheTams with feelgood song number 2 for August.  Share with your friends! #singing;#feelgood#SummerSong

2-8 The Tams

Be young, be foolish, be happy

Be young, be foolish, but be happy
Be young, be foolish, but be happyDon’t let the rain get you down it’s a waste of time
Have your fun, live every day in the bright sunshine
It’s the same old story all over the world
Girl needs boy and boy needs girl

So be young, be foolish, but be happy
Be young, be foolish, but be happy

Don’t let love slip away
Live your life for today

Life is too short to worry about unimportant things
Reach for the sky and touch a star, and then you’ll find you dream
Because dreaming alone is a shame indeed
But if you’ve got love, that’s all you’ll need

So be young, be foolish, girl be happy
Be young, be foolish, girl be happy
Be young, be foolish, girl be happy

2-8 The Tams Be young be foolish

1-8 Surfers

Good Vibrations

I love the colorful clothes she wears
And the way the sunlight plays upon her hair
I hear the sound of a gentle word
On the wind that lifts her perfume through the airI’m pickin’ up good vibrations
She’s giving me excitations (Oom bop bop)
I’m pickin’ up good vibrations (Good vibrations, oom bop bop)
She’s giving me excitations (Excitations, oom bop bop)
Good, good, good, good vibrations (Oom bop bop)
She’s giving me excitations (Excitations, oom bop bop)
Good, good, good, good vibrations (Oom bop bop)
She’s giving me excitations (Excitations)

Close my eyes, she’s somehow closer now
Softly smile, I know she must be kind
When I look in her eyes
She goes with me to a blossom world

I’m pickin’ up good vibrations
She’s giving me excitations (Oom bop bop)
I’m pickin’ up good vibrations (Good vibrations, oom bop bop)
She’s giving me excitations (Excitations, oom bop bop)
Good, good, good, good vibrations (Oom bop bop)
She’s giving me excitations (Excitations, oom bop bop)
Good, good, good, good vibrations (Oom bop bop)
She’s giving me excitations (Excitations)

(Ahh)
(Ah, my my, what elation)
I don’t know where but she sends me there
(Oh, my my, what a sensation)
(Oh, my my, what elation)
(Oh, my my, what)

Gotta keep those lovin’ good vibrations a-happenin’ with her
Gotta keep those lovin’ good vibrations a-happenin’ with her
Gotta keep those lovin’ good vibrations a-happenin’

(Ahh)

Good, good, good, good vibrations (Oom bop bop)
(I’m pickin’ up good vibrations) (Oom bop bop)
She’s giving me excitations (Excitations, oom bop bop)
Good, good, good, good vibrations

July 31st – Ranger 7 photographs the moon – “Moon River”

In 1964, the Ranger 7 spacecraft photographed the #moon.  It wasn’t made of cheese and the rivers didn’t have any water in them #singing;#feelgood

31-8 Moon as cheese

Moon River

Moon River, wider than a mile,
I’m crossing you in style some day.
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker,
wherever you’re going I’m going your way.
Two drifters off to see the world.
There’s such a lot of world to see.
We’re after the same rainbow’s end–
waiting ’round the bend,
my huckleberry friend,
Moon River and me.31-7 Audrey Hepburn Moon River

July 30th – England win the World Cup! – “We are the champions”

In 1966#England beat #Germany in the #WorldCup.  There can only be one song for this occasion! #singing;#feelgood

30-7 England World Cup

We are the champions

I’ve paid my dues
Time after time.
I’ve done my sentence
But committed no crime.
And bad mistakes ‒
I’ve made a few.
I’ve had my share of sand kicked in my face
But I’ve come through.(And I need just go on and on, and on, and on)

We are the champions, my friends,
And we’ll keep on fighting ’til the end.
We are the champions.
We are the champions.
No time for losers
‘Cause we are the champions of the world.

I’ve taken my bows
And my curtain calls
You brought me fame and fortune and everything that goes with it
I thank you all

But it’s been no bed of roses,
No pleasure cruise.
I consider it a challenge before the whole human race
And I ain’t gonna lose.

(And I need just go on and on, and on, and on)

We are the champions, my friends,
And we’ll keep on fighting ’til the end.
We are the champions.
We are the champions.
No time for losers
‘Cause we are the champions of the world.

We are the champions, my friends,
And we’ll keep on fighting ’til the end.
We are the champions.
We are the champions.
No time for losers
‘Cause we are the champions.

30-7 Queen We are the champions

July 29th – Charles and Di marry – “You’re the one that I want”

In 1981 #PrinceCharles and Lady Diana Spencer got married.  And, coincidentally in 1978 “Your the one that I want” from #Grease went to No.1 #singing;#feelgood

29-7 Your the one that I want single cover

You’re the one that I want

I got chills
They’re multiplying
And I’m losing control
‘Cause the power you’re supplying
It’s electrifying!You better shape up
‘Cause I need a man
And my heart is set on you
You better shape up
You better understand
To my heart I must be true
Nothing left
Nothing left for me to do

You’re the one that I want
Oo-oo-oo, honey
The one that I want
Oo-oo-oo, honey
The one that I want
Oo-oo-oo, the one I need
Oh, yes indeed

If you’re filled
With affection
You’re to shy to convey
Better take my direction
Feel your way

I better shape up
‘Cause you need a man
I need a man
Who can keep me satisfied
I better shape up
If I’m gonna prove
You better prove
That my faith is justified
Are you sure
Yes I’m sure down deep inside

You’re the one that I want
Oo-oo-oo, honey
The one that I want
Oo-oo-oo, honey
The one that I want
Oo-oo-oo, the one I need
Oh, yes indeed

29-7 John Travolta Youre the one that I want
